Getting on board with Safer Internet Day

Safer internet day is all about getting on board with other communities to work together to create a better internet. Although the internet makes our lives much easier in a lot of respects, for children growing up in such a fast-paced media age making good choices is becoming a hard task. This week, our internet safety workshops, coinciding with internet safety day, provided a platform for the boys to discuss their understanding of what is ok when it comes to their internet usage. Consent is an ongoing important topic at present, the groups discussed when it is ok to provide your consent and when it is not.

The boys proved that they have good awareness of the pitfalls of the internet but in an ever changing world it’s important that such discussions are ongoing and practical tips are on offer to the boys to help them manage their online presence.
